Interests
I am really interested in Immunology. I imagine the immune system as molecular policemen patrolling the body in search of criminals. I’m particularly fascinated by the idea of using the immune system to fight cancer.

Projects
My current research project is focusing on the macrophage response to Helicobacter pylori infection. More specifically, I’m focusing on L-arginine metabolism and the regulation of nitric oxide production.
